Of course the challenge never stops! I now note that there is no 'submit' in the Apple demo, so I think it must be set up to have the iconic right end of the input actually be a button tucked snuggly into the edge of the input field so it looks like one component.
Apple has made two demo iPhone webapps available as sample code on their dev web site, but they are pretty trivial games -- I need to ask if they will let the keynote application out as a sample.
